Everything I needed to know. Thank you so much.

Thanks for explaining things in a clear and concise manner that even a creative like me can understand. Francis in Melbourne.

@@fcpacker6815 Thank you for being here, Francis! I hope you’ll find lots of valuable ideas on my channel 🤗

[@Irene-bu4rc]

@fcpacker6815 I hope so too.

[@marcellecabrera6867]

Best video that I’ve seen so far to understand in a easy way. Thank you for explaining it in a way that really can make sense than just posting. ❤

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

I’m so glad you found it helpful! I do like to take time to explain the concepts rather than just zoom through 🤗

[@sarahmitchell3941]

Thank you for making this video. Really clear explanation of the pros and cons which I had been trouble getting from other videos

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Thank you so much for being here - I'm glad to help!

[@christinasmith2596]

[@hughan00]

Excellent, fluid presentation. Thank you.

[@robertv.reid-artist1168]

Just to mention , great video , excellent information. I truly like the way you break it down very simple and straightforward . You articulate it very well .

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Thank you for saying so! I was a beginner not-so-long-ago and remember feeling like the info out here was too complex!

[@nicole.makes.websites]

Even though I do Stories all the time, I haven't played with Reels yet. Thanks for the explaining the difference

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

You are most welcome! Reels do take a little more time to create but they have a long shelf-life and reach 🥳. You can even download your Story to your device, then upload that as a Reel! That's a really fast/simple way to get started ...good luck!

[@gilljackson9971]

I 'm just starting with reels. I have 15 videos of myself just posing ready. I am downloading "hooks" to get people's attention. I know that 7 seconds is enough time. But you did need technical advice on how to put it Ll together and you can choose your preferred music.

[@marierivera2789]

I hardly noticed the music. The video is very informative.

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Thank you for saying! I know music affects people differently when they’re trying to learn… I’m happy to do what works 🙌🏻😍

[@kieran211]

Very helpful video, thank you so much! I am very new to IG. You speak very clearly with the right speed and very details that I managed to understand it. I don’t often write commons but had to write one so that you can make more valuable videos to help more people like me.❤

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Thank you for saying! I release a new video every Tuesday so I hope they can help you 💖

[@sarah-beavor]

very informative video, thank you!

You are most welcome! I wish you much success in creating videos that will benefit your audience!

[@k.i.rogers7096]

This was REALLY helpful! I'm expanding my social media skills and found Instagram to be pretty popular - but wasn't sure the difference between Stores and Reels. Thank you for the clarity!

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Both Reels and Stories are the best way for beginners to move forward with leveraging social media for business! Be sure to sign up for my free 3-day Stories Bootcamp for tips on how to create, edit and publish Stories that bring more reach to your brand! www.timeboxdigitalmedia.com/stories

[@sumahomes8177]

Do you have any tips for reading the script. Do you recommend memorizing.If yes, any tips?

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

@@sumahomes8177 I have an awful memory and hence never memorize anything 🤣🤣 I handwrite very short bullet points then practice explaining that point to myself until it’s totally natural to say 🙌🏻 Once you develop that habit, you can jump on camera anytime, anywhere without notes 💕

[@sumahomes8177]

@@TimeboxDigitalMedia Wonderful. Appreciate your guidance. Proud of you! I can not remember .

So amazing ❤

So glad you could be here! 🤗

[@HeroicCoachDan]

Thank you for this presentation yet it doesn't support my learning style. I need some visuals to understand your information. Flow charts are great - actually navigating where are reels and stories? You mentioned stickers? What are they? Where are they? Perhaps I need way more adolesent hand holding in learning about this. What do you suggest?

[@gilljackson9971]

You need to buy her coaching programme! This good free advise

[@jootb]

how do I keep my stories and reels from posting on my wall but still be in the feed

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Hi! Thanks for being here 🤗 Could you give me some more details? Are you creating Stories/Reels on Instagram or Facebook?

[@WorldUniversalis]

Thank you

[@anacasasperes3718]

And thank you!

[@bambubombon]

i just posted a reel by remixing another reel but i think IG has not touched it. it's asking me to pay in order to boost it... ?😮

[@lizkochummen4915]

Boosting is a form of paid advertising so it definitely has to be paid for 🙌🏻 If you’ve gotten zero views on a Reel, it’s usually a glitch that occurred at the time of posting (not your fault, it’s an Instagram thing)

[@bambubombon]

@@lizkochummen4915 you're right.. it has had a few views since, but it keeps suggesting I boost it. Many thaks for your reply. I'm not sure I want to pursue a high profile on IG as a content creator, though. is it true IG no longer monetises views?

[@debbiemartinlifewave]

Where is BASIC information about using Instagram? I just learned tonight from a friend that the little red circle around a profile photo indicates a story. I'm struggling with how to even create a story on the app. Couldn't add more than one photo. I don't get it and no one seems to be explaining and showing the basic "how to" do stuff.

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

I totally understand what you mean and it's not as easy as it looks to get started! My go-to resource for learning any new tech is Louise Henry, she has a video on this which I hope will help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpKvm39prdB_ZtE If you find you need a quick walk-through, please email me at [e-mail] and I will create a personal video for you to learn how to create a story, it would be my pleasure!

[@debbiemartinlifewave]

@@TimeboxDigitalMedia Thank you soooooo much!!! I will definitely check out the video. I appreciate your offer to help so much!!

[@ivanivke]

I liked the video but you never explained how to post a story and how to post a reel. Where do we store reels? How? Any other video where this is explained?

[@marywu4850]

thank you

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Most welcome, Mary! Let me know if you have any further questions 🤗

Good breakdown

[@deniseevans97]

The music is DISTRACTING!! Can’t watch

[@TimeboxDigitalMedia]

Thank you for the feedback! I removed music from my 2023 videos 🤗
